Third current

[cuddlefishpeixes]

It's been so much fun to meet everyone's parents! And also, um, enlig)(tening, in some cases. I'm just )(appy t)(at Nanny Gloria made t)(e trip after all! I was worried s)(e wouldn't be able to make it! 38D

...O)(, and Mot)(er is )(ere too.

_{[Feferi's mom is the classy bitch with even more hair than her daughter. Kind of hard to miss. Feferi, meanwhile, will just be hanging out with a little old white-haired lady whose voice is so soft it's barely even a whisper.]}

Comments

[condescendence]

[Mother does not look much interested in actually interacting with her daughter. She loiters gracefully around with the poise of a fashion model and the stuck-up haughtiness of one, too, daring people to try and talk to her. And pretty much leaving Feferi to the Nanny's care.]

[cuddlefishpeixes]

[Yep, that suits Feferi JUST FIN----E.]

[condescendence]

[It's probably for the best, considering her idea of mothering attention is to finally notice her daughter, and brusquely go-]

Oh, there you are. You're not failing, are you?

[This is as close to caring and concern she can be.]

[cuddlefishpeixes]

[And Feferi just looks up at her and replies-]

Nope.

[And goes back go telling Nanny Gloria all about her friends.]

[condescendence]

[Yep this is pretty much all she can bring herself to do, to express care. Actual care. One has to wonder why she bothered to come at all.

Although being ignored similarly in return doesn't sit well with her, either. What do. Cutting in again-]

And what about Eridan Ampora? Nothing to say about him?

[stridingironically]

[Bro is creeping up on the big ball of hair, quiet enough to make a ninja commit suicide. When he's right behind her, he lets out a series of gutteral noises.

Translation: Did it hurt when you fell from Kashyyyk?]

[condescendence]

[Someone slightly less haughty than the Condesce might have tried to shove a wand in his face for that. For her part, there's a slow turn, and a pitying smile, the one reserved for children who have tried to be very clever and fallen very short of the mark.]

How quaint, they're letting in impressionists these days. Do keep practicing, one day you might be a convincing cow or something.

[stridingironically]

so wheres mama shaggy cuz i gotta see that.

[cuddlefishpeixes]

[stridingironically]

[cuddlefishpeixes]

)(a)(a. NIC-E. I'll believe it w)(en I see it.
Dave )(asn't been feeding me anyt)(ing. I just doubt t)(at someone w)(o's apparently so nice would raise a kid like )(im.

And w)(y are you so concerned wit)( my )(air, Mr. Strider?
Is it because you're old enoug)( to be losing yours?

[stridingironically]

i tried so hard to control him.
but hes out of control.
dr phil wouldnt even touch him.
